Chapter 4 Chapter Four

Quan didn't know that there was nothing to do now anyway, and there was no way to correct this regrettable mistake, so he went back to find the little thumbtack.Now he was no longer in a hurry, and sometimes he would even linger in the middle of the street for a while, shaking his head regretfully, scratching the back of his head, saying a few words to himself, coughing a few times, and then walked again. The little thumbtack was playing on the street not far from his home, and when he saw Quanwu approaching, he ran towards him. "Hi, I don't know!" she exclaimed happily.

I don't know how to stop, and didn't answer her greeting, and said with a sad face: "Now I don't know everything, I'm just a donkey!" "What's the matter?" Little Pushpin asked in surprise. "It's like this: the magician gave me a stick, but I kept saying 'thank you' Yu didn't say, look!" "What stick?" The little thumbtack was a little strange. "Ah, 'What stick, what stick!' As if you didn't know what kind of stick there was. A magic stick!" "I don't know at all, you, I must have gone crazy, thinking about magic sticks and not magic sticks!"

"I'm—not at all imagining. You see, it's a magic wand, see?" Quan Shi held the magic wand tightly in his hand, and showed it to the little thumbtack. "How could this be a magic stick? An ordinary stick!" said the little thumbtack inexplicably. "An ordinary stick!" Quan Bu imitated her words. "If you don't understand, it's best not to say it! The magician gave it to me with his own hands." "Which magician?" "Which magician, which magician! It's as if you didn't know there was a magician!" "Of course, I don't know!" The little thumbtack shrugged. "Come to think of it, I've never seen a real magician before."

"Well, here's what he looks like: a long white beard, full of stars and a half-moon here..." cried Quan Zhi. "I did three good things, understand?" "Don't understand anything! You'd better start at the beginning!" He told her the whole story without knowing it.After listening, the little thumbtack said: "Maybe, who is joking with you? He pretended to be a magician on purpose." "If it weren't for the magician, where did the magic stick come from?" "Do you really believe that this stick has magic powers? Have you tried it?"

"No, I haven't tried it. But you can try." "Why do you stand there and say nothing? You should wave your wand and say your wish. If it comes true, it's a real wand." "What if it doesn't happen?" Quan Mo asked. "Nuan, if it doesn't come true, it's just an ordinary stick, and it's over! Why don't you understand such a little thing?" Little Pushpin said angrily. She was very anxious, because she wanted to know very much whether the stick had magic power or not.She was also furious that he didn't know it, because it hadn't occurred to him until now to try the stick.

"Okay then." Don't know. "Let's try it. What shall we have?" "Well, what do you want?" asked the little thumbtack. "I don't know what I want myself...it seems like I don't want anything now." "Hey, you're a real person!" The little thumbtack got angry. "Think about it quickly! Do you want Popsicle?" "I want popsicles." Quan Shi agreed. "Let's have popsicles." He waved his magic wand and said, "We want popsicles." "The one with the stick," added the little thumbtack.

Quan Wuzhi stretched out his hand hesitantly, his eyes narrowed. "What if the popsicles don't come out?" He thought to himself, but immediately felt a hard, cold thing stuffed into his hand. Quan didn't know and opened his eyes quickly, only to see a popsicle in his hand.He opened his mouth wide in surprise and looked up, as if trying to figure out if the popsicle fell from above.He turned slowly to look at the little thumbtack, and stretched out his hand to hold the popsicle tightly, as if afraid that it might fly off.The little thumbtack also held a popsicle in his hand, smiling happily.

"Come-come-come-come..." Quan Zhi pointed at the popsicle and muttered. He wanted to say something, but because of his excitement, he couldn't say a word. "What's 'come, come, come'?" asked the little thumbtack. Quan didn't know that he just waved his hand at her and started to eat the popsicles.The little thumbtack did the same.After eating the popsicles, she said, "Popsicles are delicious, aren't they?" "Wonderful!" Quan Zhi went on. "Let's each have another one?" "Come on, come on," agreed Little Thumbtack.

Knowing nothing, he waved his magic stick again: "We hope everyone will have another popsicle!" There was only a slight rustling sound in the air, and another popsicle appeared in the hands of Quanwu and Little Pushpin.I didn't know it and stayed for a while.But this time he woke up quickly, and asked again after eating, "Do you want to try again?" "Would you like to come back to root alone?" "Hey, why bother, 'one by one'!" Quan Mo muttered, waving the stick casually. "We want a box of popsicles!" Snapped!A large light blue box—like the kind used by popsicle sellers—dropped to the floor.I didn't know to open the lid of the box, and there was a burst of water vapor inside.He took out two popsicles from inside, covered the box, and sat on it as a bench.I didn't know that I was biting a popsicle and felt that it was harder, cooler and more delicious than the previous two.

"It's really called a popsicle!" he praised. "Even teeth can freeze off!" "I really want to know if this stick can only be turned into a popsicle, or if it can be turned into something else," said the little thumbtack. "You're such a weirdo!" said Omniscient. "This is a real magic stick, it can change anything. If you want an invisibility hat, there is an invisibility hat, and if you want a flying carpet, there is a flying carpet." "Then I want a flying carpet, let's travel on it." Little Pushpin suggested. I don't know that I really want to travel, and I can't wait to go right away.But, remembering how dreadful his last ride in a balloon designed by Little Erudite, he said, "It's not very comfortable to travel on a flying carpet. When you go up, you can't see anything below."

"Well, think of something else then," said little pushpin. "I read somewhere that there is a kind of train... you sit on it, and you don't need to do anything at all, and the locomotive will take you along the railway." "I know that. The little erudite told us about the railway. He saw the train when he went to Sun City to pick up his books. But it is also very dangerous on the railway, and accidents often happen!" At this time, Quan didn't know to see the small screw and the small tenon riding Bai's new car on the street.It was a convertible car with four seats, just like the one that had been wrecked by driving without knowing it.There was only one difference: the car was prettier and had a better motor because it was fueled not with soda but with superheated soda. The little screw and tenon didn't know anything about the little screw and the little thumbtack when they saw it, so they quickly beckoned to them.Quan Shi yelled and told them that he already had a magic wand.However, the car vibrated so badly that the small screws and tenons could not be heard clearly. Driving the car, a cloud of dust was raised and disappeared at the other end of the street. "Let's travel on it!" cried Omniscient. "By car?" Little Pushpin asked back. "certainly!" "Have you forgotten how you fell down the hill with your car and man? You nearly died and the car was broken!" "Oh, you're so weird! I couldn't drive in those days." "Looks like you know how to do it now!" "Now I don't even have to learn. Just tell the magic wand that I want to drive, and I can." "Well, that's all right," said the little thumbtack. "Then it's more interesting to take a car." Quan Zhi waved his magic stick and said, "We want a small car, like the one with the little screw and the little tenon, and let me know how to drive it!" Immediately, a car appeared at the end of the street, and it drove all the way to Quan Zhi and Little Thumbtack.I didn't know that I thought it was a small screw and a small tenon that drove the car back again.However, the car stopped beside them, but there was no one in the driver's seat. "This is really a fun thing!" he shouted, looking up and down the car carefully, and even looked under the car, thinking that the driver was deliberately hiding under the car to deceive him, and when no one found it, he said : "Well, nothing surprising. Magic is magic!" He opened the door, put the popsicle box on the back seat, and sat in the front driver's seat.The little thumbtack sat next to him.Just as he was about to start the motor, the little thumbtack suddenly saw a little boy walking towards them. "Wait-wait!" she said to the unknown. "Let's not press him down..." Little did they know that when the little boy got closer, it turned out that it was none other than the famous filthy ghost, Xiao Hualian. Dilty Face was always in dingy trousers, dingy jacket, and a dingy little flowered hat--he called it a yarmulke himself.In his opinion, gray material is the best material in the world, because it is not easy to get dirty.This is of course wrong, gray material, like other materials, can also get dirty, but I don't know why the dirt on it is not easy to see. It must be mentioned that the Dirty Ghost is a very ridiculous little fellow.He has two creeds: one, never wash his face and hands; two, never express surprise to anything.It was much more difficult for him to obey the first article of faith than the second, because his little fellow kept forcing him to wash his hands before meals.If he objected, everyone would not let him eat.So, he still has to wash, but it's no use, he'll be messed up in no time.Often after he has just washed, his face will soon become freckled and streaked, losing its original color and turning black.Therefore, people call him the dirty ghost.If it wasn't for the famous traveler Xiao Compass who came to Baihua City and something happened, he would have been called this name for the rest of his life. Compass the Traveler is also a well-known figure, worth talking about.He was thin and long: long hands, long legs, long head, long nose.His checkered trousers are also long.This little compass used to live in Pea City, where the residents never walked, and rode bicycles whenever they went out.Compass also rides his bicycle all the time.He became addicted to cycling, and felt that the place was too small to ride in the city, so he decided to cycle around all the little cities in the world. After arriving in Hundred Flowers City, he wandered around on his bicycle.He poked around with his long nose and made friends with everyone.Before long, he was acquainted with all the inhabitants except the Dirty One.Because everyone was afraid that he would embarrass Baihua City, so they deliberately hid him.Many people think this way: if Little Compass sees his dirty face, he will think that all the little people in Baihua City are so dirty.So everyone tried not to let Compass meet the dirty ghost. In general, everything was fine until Compasso decided to leave.However, on the day Xiao Zizuo was about to leave Baihua City, everyone didn't take the filthy ghost seriously, and he slipped into the street, just in time to meet the residents saying goodbye to Xiao Zizuo.Little Compass found an unfamiliar grimace in the crowd of little people, and was a little surprised: Why didn't I know him?He wanted to ask, "Who is this dirty fellow?" But he was a very well-bred little man, and he couldn't use the rude word "dirty", so he changed it to a more polite one. Son asked: "Who is this little face?" Everyone looked back and saw that it was a filthy ghost. His grimace was really dirty like a painted face, because he hadn't washed his face since he woke up that day.Everyone likes the word "Fairy Face" very much, and since then, the dirty ghost has been called "Fairy Face".Dirty himself liked being called by this new name, because it was, after all, much more refined and prettier than Dirty.
